It is, apparently, Friday.

Took me by surprise too!

Cruising random RPG forums, and find mention of a Call of Cthulhu scenario called 'Electric Hoe-Down of the Atomic Reptile Bikini Women - in 3D!!!!!!', and sadly, the link provided is to Geocities, and it's from 2004, so...

It's gone :(

Drags out soap box

This is why, it's important that if you see something cool, you grab a copy of it and stash it.

Like, hopefully you make it available to other people in some form, but at the very least, preserve stuff!

Same thread has a bunch of other recommendations for CoC starter scenarios from 'Game Eerie', and... yeah, that's another dead link.

I know we can't catch 'em all, etc, but it's frustrating to think that free content for a hobby is just dissipating into the ether.

18+ DarkestKale,
@DarkestKale@mastodon.social avatar

... every single link on this thread for CoC scenarios in 2004 is dead.

Every single fucking one.

Good news everyone!

At least one of the links was in the Wayback machine...

Which means I'm now going to spend a week downloading, sifting and cleaning shit up to archive it in my own giant pile of PDFs

I want you to consider that one of the most widely pirated things, in history is actually the 'You wouldn't steal a car' anti-piracy ad.

Damnit, I mean, I'm happy I found this, but also... I don't even /run/ Call of Cthulhu.

But now I feel I have to do this.

@DarkestKale i am assuming this is a horror thing?

18+ DarkestKale,
@DarkestKale@mastodon.social avatar

@worthlessbums oh.

Yeah, Call of Cthulhu is basically the main 'horror' rpg.

Some market research I've read indicates it's either the second or third most popular RPG (D&D first, and Pathfinder sometimes second, sometimes third).

Been around for a long, long time...

@DarkestKale lmk if you need me to make a flashlight character

Trying to work out exactly what the goal is for the 'transcribe these old porn mags/stories' dataset.

Dunno if there's even anywhere to release it...

18+ DarkestKale,
@DarkestKale@mastodon.social avatar

Anyway, reading through all these old porn mag stories has lead me to firmly believe that you might think the current generations (Millenials, Z) are a bunch of perverts, but holy fuckin' shit, the boomers were massive pervs.

They were just also repressed.

18+ DarkestKale,
@DarkestKale@mastodon.social avatar

Basically, there's a point where you can tell 'omg, women might, you know... shave down there... tee-hee' is a big thing, because several stories are literally hinged explicitly on how gosh-darn-filthy that idea is.
